What’s been the
highlight moment of your collegiate career thus far?
“Getting to play at Fenway Park against our rival, Maine, in
front of 38,000-plus fans. It was just a tremendous experience that
I’ll never forget.”

What courses are you
going to be taking this semester?
“I’m a business administration finance major, so
I’m taking my last few business classes that I need to take
to graduate, along with an elective for my kinesiology minor in
sports studies.”

What’s the best
college hockey chant you’ve ever heard that’s fit to
print?
“When we played Northeastern at home and their
goalie’s last name was Mountain, the fans started chanting
‘Broke Back Mountain!’ or when we play Boston
University and our fans chant ‘Sucks to BU!’”

If someone made the
Kevin Goumas movie, who would you want to play you?
“Many people have told me that I look like James Franco, so
I’ve got to go with him.”

If you could hang out
with any celebrity, who would you choose?
“This is a tough one and I can go many ways with this.
If it were a girl, no doubt in my mind it would be Mila Kunis. As
for a guy, getting to hang out with Tiger Woods and play a round of
golf with him wouldn’t be a bad choice.”

What’s your
favorite hangout spot near campus?
“Probably Main Street downtown with all the stores and
restaurants.”

Who is the toughest
goalie you’ve ever faced?
“I’ve faced a bunch of tough goalies, but one I face a
lot who is pretty tough is Jon Gillies of Providence.”

Which one of your
teammates has the worst fashion sense?
“Casey DeSmith because he only has three sets of clothes and
they’re all from hockey tournaments that he has played in the
past.”

What’s the best
nickname anyone’s ever given you?
‘Goumy’

If you could be any
fictional character, who would you choose? How come?
“Superman. I think it would be cool to be able to fly and
have superhuman strength.”

Movie:
“Like a whole bunch, but I’ll have to go with
‘Old School’ or ‘Billy Madison.’
